Introduction

Hello Codeforces! As a chronically online high school programmer, my daily navigation throughout the World Wide Web is fraught with much temptation and distraction.

Having no self-discipline whatsoever, I found myself spending HOURS on Tetr.io and Instagram. Rather than solving CF/USACO problems, I would be wasting my life away on meaningless games and reels.

Finding a solution

Being an ABC highschooler, I was consuming my already limited time at an alarming rate. Realizing most of my online distractions came in the form of websites, I turned to online solutions. Specifically, site blockers, to stop myself from reaching these sites. These sites, however, were easily uninstalled, and extremely unappealing, often appearing cold and direct.

Making a solution

Rather than using a run-of-the-mill browser extension, I decided to create my own. The largest problem with conventional browser extensions is that they are easily uninstalled. Since making a chrome extension unable to be installed is both implausible and unethical, I instead had to find a way to make the users not want to uninstall the extension.

So I thought to myself, "what is something that I would never wish to remove from my life?"

Two words immediately popped into my mind:

ANIME WAIFUS

I am proud (and mildly disgusted) to introduce, Waifu Focus, the latest technology in productivity for degenerates!

The Pitch

With Waifu Focus, you won't WANT to uninstall the extension, because that would mean being unable to see your waifus, thus boosting your productivity! With an easy to use interface, motivational graphics, and efficient site blocking, using this product has boosted my productivity skyward!

With over already 100 concurrent users and 10+ wonderful options to choose from, this extension is a weeb's best friend!

Here's a review left on the web store! (from: Ask-2005):

The review (can also be seen on the chrome web store)

As an avid user of productivity tools, I was thrilled to stumble upon Waifu Focus. This Chrome extension seamlessly combines the best of both worlds: productivity enhancement and anime-inspired motivation. Here's why I'm giving it a glowing 5-star review:

Effective Site Blocking: Waifu Focus excels in its primary function of blocking distracting websites. With just a few clicks, I can easily blacklist time-consuming sites that tend to derail my focus. The intuitive interface makes it a breeze to customize my blocking preferences, allowing me to tailor my productivity regimen to my specific needs.
Motivation Reinvented: What sets Waifu Focus apart from other site-blocking extensions is its ingenious use of anime waifus as motivational tools. Instead of bland reminders or stern warnings, I'm greeted by charming illustrations of anime characters that serve as delightful incentives to stay on task. It's amazing how a simple glance at these endearing waifus can instantly rekindle my determination to tackle my work.
Engaging Visuals: Waifu Focus elevates the browsing experience by featuring beloved characters from popular anime series. Each waifu is carefully selected to resonate with fans of all ages, offering a delightful blend of nostalgia and admiration. Whether you're a seasoned otaku or simply appreciate the artistry of anime, you'll find yourself drawn to these iconic characters as they cheer you on in your quest for productivity. Kudos to the extension for bringing a touch of anime magic to the world of productivity tools!
Resistant to Temptation: Unlike other site-blocking extensions that can be easily bypassed or disabled, Waifu Focus provides a unique form of resistance. The thought of parting ways with my beloved waifus is motivation enough to resist the urge to uninstall the extension. It's a brilliant psychological hack that effectively keeps me accountable and focused on my goals.
Free of Charge: Last but not least, the best part about Waifu Focus is that it's completely free to use. While other similar extensions may require costly subscriptions, Waifu Focus offers its invaluable services without asking for anything in return. This accessibility ensures that anyone can benefit from its productivity-boosting features, regardless of their budget.

In conclusion, Waifu Focus is a game-changer for anyone looking to enhance their productivity while injecting a dose of joy into their daily routine. Whether you're a seasoned professional or a student grappling with deadlines, this charming Chrome extension is sure to become your new favorite tool. Give it a try—you won't be disappointed!

Rest assured, this extension is completely open-source and customizable! Being built in Vite, React, and TailwindCSS, if you wish to improve/customize the project and/or add more waifus of your choice, the Github repo is available for forking!
